Marco(2) #1 Posted October 12, 2001 Hi all, Did anyone try the Computer Chess ROM? I'm having troubles running the game on an emulator myself... I just saw the picture of the label - damn, that's cool! I wish I had a cart like that, my proto is just the board. My Polo proto has the same top label, but is missing the end label. I wonder if it had one like Computer Chess... Cheers, Marco Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MattyXB #2 Posted October 12, 2001 It work by me. But as I start there is one figure missing. And it plays with the second joystick. Or maybe by 2 Players. I think its not working right. But something is working. Matthias Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marco(2) #3 Posted October 12, 2001 I works fine on my console. I had to figure out how to get it working properly though. It requires the right (not the left) joystick and difficulty switches both in position B. Set up in this way, you can play a game of chess. When the VCS is thinking, the screen flashes and there is some psychedelic sound. However, on the emulators I cannot get it set up properly, and the VCS starts with some highly illegal moves Cheers, Marco Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Eckhard Stolberg #5 Posted October 12, 2001 The ROM works nicely on z26 1.50. Just as you described it for your console, including the screen flashes and sounds. Maybe you are just using the wrong emulator. Ciao, Eckhard Stolberg Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blackjax #6 Posted October 12, 2001 unfortunately, us Mac people don't have much in the way of emu choices... Stella or nothing... unless of course, some C sources of z26 suddenly appeared and we'd be better off Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hmmmm, I wonder how well the various emulators would run in Virtual PC. At least the Windows emulators, I doubt you'd have much luck getting the DOS-based emulators to work. ..Al Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
